Partner opens 1H and you were just about to try Ken's 2C bid when RHO bids 2S! Love all.

1H-(2S)-?
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Either pass, intending to pass the reopening double, or bid 3NT. At equal nonvul, I would go for the penalty. You should be able to tap declarer out by leading hearts. 500 is a real possibility.

Just 3♠. No need to mastermind with a negative x, pass or some number of NT.

Agree with this, except a negative double really puzzles the hell out of me.

Good thing you skipped the class on masterminding. After a neg x, I know some that would support hearts over 3♣ or 3♥, and 3N over 3♦.

well done everybody for not bidding 3NT, since they'd cash nine diamond tricks from the opening lead. I tried pass and then LHO jumped in 5♦ which went for 300. we make 11 tricks in hearts.
